Bruce Gilden was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1946. He became a member of Magnum Photos in 1998, and a full member in 2002. Gilden’s fascination with curious characters, a main theme in his work, was already evident at the end of the sixties when he photographed his Coney Island reportage. His work has received a number of awards, including the three National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships, the 1996 European Publishers Award for Photography and in 1999 the Japan Foundation Artist’s Fellowship. In 2013, Bruce received a Guggenheim Fellowship.
